Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder, the old
adage goes. The moot point here is, do we ever have time to pause and
take a look around us to enjoy the nature daily ?
We madly plan for outings or vacations to bring
serenity back into our hustle-bustle life. We need to pay attention
for the simple pleasures of life which are free even to a penniless.
What we need is a tender heart and time to cherish.
You need not go to distant lands to savor the
holiday. The heaven is just in front of you. What you need is
an attentive eye. Of course, some tools are required to record the
events, and in my case, it is reasonably a standard camera.
In fact, Ruskin Bond, the famous Anglo-Indian writer who wrote more on Nature, Hills
awakened my spirit to rest eternally on the lap of Mother Nature. He is
the force behind me to take more shots on nature.
The image you are seeing above is taken from my Samsung E7 mobile camera powered by 13 mega
pixels, a few years ago.
When I restarted my morning walks after a long
time, suddenly the tiny park behind my Delhi apartment looked more stunning and exuberated my mood. The flowers, their
unique blend of colours and textures are marvelous.
I bow my head before the Creator who leisurely
created those things with unmatched brain power. The honey bee above silently
advises me with its gesture to enjoy each moment of my earthly sojourn. The
message is simply not to me but everybody looking at it.
When I am struggling to wrap up this passage, a
timely quote appeared on my mobile phone's notification bar :
"Why live an
ordinary life, when you can live an extraordinary one''
- Anthony
Robbins
